STAM1NA: 'Vanhaa Paskaa' Lands On Finnish Chart

November 15, 2010

"Vanhaa Paskaa" (which literally translates to "old shit"),the new collection of old demo recordings which were originally "self-released" on cassette tape or CD-R format before Lemi, Finland-based metallers STAM1NA signed a deal with Sakara Records, has entered the official chart in the band's home country at position No. 2. The compilation was made available in response to an overwhelming demand from fans who couldn't track down the band's early material.

A video for the song "Yhdeksän Tien Päät" — which is included on "Vanhaa Paskaa" — can be viewed below. The track was recorded during the studio sessions for STAM1NA's third album, "Raja", but did not end up on the final CD.

STAM1NA made several demos between 1997 and 2004. The group's first recordings were sung in English, and from those there is only one track included on the "Vanhaa Paskaa" album — "Meet Your Fate", which was also the first song ever composed by the band.

STAM1NA's first Finnish-language demo was released in 2001 and the "Vanhaa Paskaa" album contains all the demo material the band recorded in Finnish.

Released on November 3 via Sakara Records, "Vanhaa Paskaa (Epäviralliset Kokeilut 1997-2008)" features the following track listing:

01. Vihaa
02. Eudaimonia
03. Koe Murha!
04. Eivät Ikinä Saa
05. Arjen Sankari
06. Minä
07. Elämäsi Repliikki
08. Miekannielijä
09. Erilaisen Rakkauden Todistaja

11. Väkivaltakunta
12. Joutsen
13. Paha Arkkitehti
14. Koirapoika

16. Sananen Lihasta
17. Pyhä Yksinkertaisuus
18. Kadonneet Kolme Sanaa
19. Yhdeksän Tien Päät

STAM1NA has joined forces with MOKOMA, RYTMIHÄIRIÖ and FM2000 for the "Sakara Tour 2010" in November covering the biggest clubs in Finland. Joining the trek for two gigs is TERÄSBETONI.
